If the correct capacitor was fitted and being new, I would expect it to be in good nick
There may very well be a fault on the winding itself,maybe it didn't show up previously because of the wire disconnected on the centrifugal switch
You will need to test that winding to check for short or earth fault
your spark mate should have a suitable meter

Hi Shaun: As Des said, now you need to get your motor checked. I'd actually take it to a decent motor repairer for testing.
Also do you remember in earlier posts, i warned you that you needed to use the same voltage capacitor or a higher voltage ?.
The capacitor you used as a replacement is actually rated 250v, the original capacitor was rated 300v, Oops.
Was it actually new or used ?.

No mate 450v would be ideal, so capacitor will be 75uf @ 450 volt.
But please take the advice, get the motor checked by a professional motor shop before fitting, could well save you money.

You definately need hands on help from a motor specialist. It could be several things one being the motor not achieving enough rpm to switch out the start winding allied with the wrong capacitor voltage, impossible to say from a distance.

Hey Shaun: Don't know how close they are to you, but there's a place in Bolton called RH Rewinds. Never used them myself but they seem pretty clued up & fully equipped to test / repair motors. Just had a look on their website & they say they prefer to repair motors, rather than replace them. May pay to give them a ring if they're close.
Thanx but im in Newcastle bolton would be few hours drive for me

Typical, no probs mate. Will see what I can find in your area.
Sadly, being so far away i can't offer to come and do it for you.
Well seems your pretty spoiled for choice in your area mate, there are quite a few advertising.

Iv been to one and he was more keen knocking a bigger size motor in to me and the is another near me but it would be cheaper replacing it then him he wanted 35quid for a 80 uf+- 5 capacitor

With the company I told you about last week, they were quite reasonably priced. Even on the bay, a 75uf 450v start cap is only £15.
When i said motor repair shop, i was thinking of a decent reputable firm Not a little back street one man band.
The sort that repairs rather than replaces, unfortunately i've always found that with motor repair, most of the back street places just want to sell motors.

If you want Dyson bits tel, use Manchester vacs. That's where i buy all mine, probably won't get motor brushes though. The motors are classed as throwaway, but Stu is cheap for them.

Bought my DC14 as faulty for £15 with all attachments, two years ago. New belts & filters came to a tenner, thing is still running like a dream
Picked up a DC01 & DC07 from another guy for £7 the pair, will get around to fixing them one day lol.
